Hatch in isometric projection/drawing

Registered forum members do not see this ad.

Hi guys! It’s me again J. In Autocad LT 2002

Here’s the set up.
New drawing.
On the command line type
DDVPOINT
<select from X axis 315, XY plane 30> <you should be on "Absolute to WCS>
then click OK
from drop down. select tools
then drafting settings
then on the Snap and Grid click on ISometric snap

Draw an ellipse, any radius (axis on the Y and Z axis)
Can I apply the hatch command in this set up?
Thanks...

You can hatch a plain closed boundary as long as it is placed on (or it is parallel with) the XOY plane. It is not important the direction of view. If the ellipse had one axie parallel with the OX and the other with the OZ plane it is placed on the XOZ plane. In this case rotate the UCS around the OX axe and than you can hatch.
Please tell me: do you begin all your messages by pasting the “header” from somewhere?
